The newly announced PS4 port will run at 1080p and 60fps, with crossbuy -- meaning one purchase of either the PS4 or Vita version will come with the other.

The addition of PS4 support in the midst of Vita development means several changes for the upcoming shooter.

"The gameplay had to shift from a fully mobile experience into something better suited to comfy couches and huge 1080p screens." Developer Serban Porumbescu said.

Besides the visual improvements, Gunship X's "infinite runner" missions have also transformed into what Porumbescu calls "a proper, progressive mission system," with infinite missions still available as an optional game mode.

Gunship X puts you in charge of blasting alien invaders from an AC-130 Gunship. However, the original Vita announcement also made mention of the AC-17, and a "secret 3rd plane."
